We might have 4 central midfielders but not of the calibre of last season’s midfielders
I'm all in . . .
until you said Stone Island.
oh . . . And Woy . . . Was f***ing ace at Fulham. He had an ace striker too.

Webster was excellent. We got decent value from him.
All De Zerbi.
The most bang average player left in our squad

It’s not faultless but I’d argue it’s delivered far more than it’s failed.
You do realise it’s the envy of every club in world and why all of our people are being cherry picked off the back of it?
RDZ was made fully aware of the way re recruit and our business model when he signed for the club.

Dahoud, fati, baleba, Milner, lallana, zeqeri, tau, etc etc
I missed that opinion from Bloom (not doubting what you're saying)
You and I aren’t ITK. Those here with special inside access informed us that RDZ told the club to sign Fati.

I guess it's just heat of the moment stuff, he clearly wears his heart on his sleeve. It just doesn't sit well with me, if things in my professional life don't go to plan I'd always publicly support my peers and superiors even if they've contributed to my failings. The difficult conversations should always be conducted in private IMO

Not English as I said earlier, thomas Frank would be a good call if he wants to leave brentford.
Yes. I used to put this down to his roller coaster emotions, but after a while I get confused.

But when he delivers European football for the first time in Our history I think he expected much more backing than he got.
I’d be well pissed off.

I fully realise that but that wasn’t my original point. My point was where is the evidence that Fati and Dahoud were down to RDZ. You’ve provided no answer or evidence for that at all. If we were that good at recruitment we’d not let a new manager just bring his players in.

Wouldn’t it be nice though, to have a manager that can adapt and change it, rather than blindly, predictably play together same way week after week.
I can't understand why people - apparently including De Zerbi - can't get their head round why that might be.
We truly have been spoilt if we genuinely think we can pull a rabbit out of a hat, turn water into wine and feed the 5000 every single time.
The only way we'll be able to replace mitoma will be to have a 24 year old previously unearthed amazing player from Japan currently playing in Belgium,
Sourced from the past?
What comes next will be different. The fan base and the managers have to accept that because its patently obvious to Bloom and Barber. WBG DID replace one of those players. Baleba IS a replacement for another. The fact that one isn't immediately being headhunted by a title challenger and the other isn't going to be the next most expensive midfielder on earth isn't automatocally a failure or the absence of being backed.
